ABTA admits mistake, blames board
ABTA state general secretary Sukumar Paine said, “There is a question in our test paper that what is Azad Kashmir. This question is of 2 marks, but Azad Kashmir is also there in our board’s syllabus. It is also in the government approved book, when it is in the syllabus then the question is for the asker. The board should have known when it made the syllabus, but I would say, since it is a controversial topic, it is better not to happen. Questions need to be more careful in future.”
The mention of ‘Azad Kashmir’ is only in the secondary examination book
Swapan Mandal, general secretary of the Bengali Teachers and Education Workers Association, said, “I have heard that the ABTA test paper has questions about the disputed part of Kashmir, which Pakistan calls Azad Kashmir. We think it is wrong because no one in our country says Azad Kashmir. UN also does not say Azad Kashmir. Mistake is mistake. However, Swapan Mandal also blamed the Madhya Shiksha Parishad for this ‘mistake’. In his words, Azad Kashmir is written on one page of the book, in which the approval of the Central Board of Education has been received. Although not written in the main text, Azad Kashmir is written in the footnotes. Let us inform that even before this there was a dispute in Bengal regarding this.
